Eliza Gilkyson River of Gold

Well I don't know but I've been told
If you're lucky you'll find that river of gold
Well there's all kinds of fortune in the universe
But for the river of gold I've got a powerful thirst

And the night is falling

Well I don't wanna be some ornament wife
And I don't need a lover for once in my life
I just wanna get going before I'm too old
To drink for a while from the river of gold

And the night is falling

River of gold
River of gold

I seem to have lost my direction
somehow
I've been afraid
just to stick my head out
Travel alone 'til I get to where I'm bound

That river of gold

Well don't grab my hand don't stand in my way
I read the stars by night and the cards by day
But when the wheel goes round and the story is told
It was all for a dream of a river of gold

And the night came calling

River of gold
River of gold
